Star is back.
Kerry boss Eamon Fitzmaurice has made one change to the Kerry team that did for Tyrone last week ahead of Sunday’s Allianz Leagues Division 1 final with Dublin.
Jonathan Lyne come into the half forward line with Kevin McCarthy moving to the corner – Barry John Keane is the player to miss out on the starting fifteen spot.
There is a familiar, legendary face on the Kingdom bench as Kieran Donaghy is included in his first squad of the year.
With Colm Cooper hanging up his inter-county boots earlier this week, Kerry fans will be heartened to see the veteran forward back in the panel ahead of a tough, tough test at Croke Park.
Here is the Kerry team in full.
